MY Dear Allen was a honest good father and great grandfather loved his children dearly. He had Marlene Beth, she had five children and had four grand children also Michael Lee, Had three children and Had two grand children Wendy Helene was his youngest daughter and had three children. He loved all his children and grandchildren very much. He told me that it was the best thing he had done in life to have a wonderful family whom cared for each other. Allen did a lot of charity work for the Lions Club but also helped many who were in need of phones and help. I will always Love Him Dearly and miss him he would always tell me no matter what time of night feel free to call. He fought all his life with eye problems then he lost his sight latter in life he was the strongest person I have ever known it is what it is just move on with life His Children loved him much they were with him and supported his every need He really appreciated his daughter Wendy whom watched over him and helped him in many ways with love no matter what she was there for him and everyone . Thank You Wendy for being Wendy Thank You all for helping him through his illness the last words I heard from him was I Love you all my life thank you for giving me the time and life with you Celia

He will be very missed by all as the tears are rolling down my cheeks have only goodness in my heart rest in peace
